Chereads / Godsmithing Otaku / Chapter 31 - Promotion Event

Chapter 31 - Promotion Event

Haze teleported back to his apartment with the [Ghost Controller] and dropped him on his bed.

The sun was going down, but he still had to update Zack and Mace before he went to sleep. His plan was to save up [god credits] for now unless it was a necessity since he was still in the F rank.

"Hey, why don't you go to sleep," Rail yawned and tossed on a large white shirt, "You didn't sleep last night right?"

"He's finally going to upgrade my skills. Don't take this away," Zack said as he sat in front of the television with the screen off. "I won't even watch any anime. I can wait."

"Hey, about upgrades. How many god credits do you need to get to D rank," Waxing said as she turned back into her human form. "It's worth saving up unless you want to take part in a promotion event."

"What's that" Haze said as he opened up and looked over at Rail as she jumped on the bed, "You-you guys can go to sleep. I'll be up for thirty minutes."

"I can't sleep until after the next episode. I can wait," Zack looked over at the screen as Haze loaded up his body in the menu. "Wait, are you actually going to upgrade me?"

"Yes, however, Waxing... why are you so quiet?"

"Zack talked so I waited... As for the promotion event, it usually takes place in an off world location. Ten people compete for 5 free promotion spots."

"What happens to the 5 who don't win?" Haze clicked on the + button next to Zack's sword skill as it got quiet. "What? What aren't you guys saying?"

"Do we have to tell you? They don't exist anymore," Rail said as she crossed her arms, "However, you have to take risks right? Same as walking outside,"

"Agree," Port said as he brought in a menu," Ordering food is the same thing,"

"Okay, so option 1..." Haze looked over at Zack, and waved him over, "I compete in a promotion event where I have a 50 percent chance of dying or what?"

"There is only one other option, and that's to pay with god credits. However, most people don't do that because they'd be crushed in ." Rail said as he snapped her fingers and appeared on Haze's lap with a long sleeve shirt on. "Now, I'm small, and need sleep. Shut the lights off already!"

"I think-I think... I think there is one other way," Waxing pushed down her white skirt and fixed her black hair, "You'd have to win at least 5 special missions like the ten matches in a row."

"She means to make up for the loss of god credits," Zack smiled as Haze went towards the confirm button to upgarde Zack. He smiled as Haze sighed and passed him the mouse, "Here, you can upgrade yourself. This time you can say I thought about you."

"It's a shame. The beginning is where it matters," Zack looked morosely at the screen as he confirmed his upgrade. His body started to glow silver before his sword slightly grew.

[Skill upgrade has been successful]

[Zack's first primary skill has changed into

[His attack will now have a second crescent slash when used on targets...]

"Not bad... I can sleep with the television on now."

"Ow, you going to forget about me," The small [Ghost Controller] rolled out from under the bed as he rubbed his face. "The little girl nailed me so hard. Did she have to swing with full force?"

"Did you have to kill a little girl?"

"Why-why isn't he passed out?" Mace yawned and walked into the room. "I expected to not see his little face until morning."

She leaned down and passed him an ice pack as she he reached in his pocket and pulled out a small bag. "Here, I think I found his software."

"Hey, damn it! Ask first! My name is Mack by the way."

"I-I had no choice but to kill that girl by the way! They changed the software this year!"

"Oh no," Rail said as she crossed her arms, "Is this year an update year? Great, then our knowledge from last time will become useless."

"Not totally," Port said, "It's probably only [Ghost Controllers.]

"I'm not worried, I'll be in my room watching Burn that Witch." Zack walked off with a smile on his face. "I can't wait to brag to Carl."

"Ugh, I forgot! I still have to deal with [Joke Land]! Five more combat matches and I should be able to kill her gods right?"

"I think you should just ignore her," Rail closed her eyes on Haze's body, "Ignore her or risk pissing off a high rank devil guild."

"I can't just ignore her," Haze loaded combat mode and prepared to try and finish his seventh win in a row. "Maybe it's dumb, but I see potential in her."

"Trust your instincts," Mace said as she slowly pulled off her shirt and took of her jeans. "However, we might as well train you again before we go to sleep."

"You-you have to strip to train him," Mack got on his feet and looked around the mansion, "Wow, I guess I'll find my room... Call me if you need me Haze."

Haze looked back as Mace walked off. Did he just get nicer to him in less than a minute?

He'd soon find out in a discussion later tonight that the bond started forming the second after someone was captured. First, he had to endure his training and some grueling .

"You-you really are getting stronger," Mace said as she activated the on Haze, " I know it hurts, but I bet you'll have more strength in the morning"

"I hope I'm alive!" Haze clicked on as he saw a message appear from [Eternal Fantasy]. "...I'm glad she is too."

"Hope so," Rail said as she turned to the side and looked up at Mace's beautiful body and blushed. "I kind of want you to upgrade me too. Sometimes, being the first in anything sucks."
